FREEPORT


This place is sick. Even though I've been inside the whole time I love it here! Imagine the boonies of Indiana mixed with people of the Southside who got kicked out and sent here and that pretty much describes it. So it's pretty legendary! I'm excited for when we're able to actually go out and I have to say there is no place I'd rather finish my mission!

My new companion Elder Young is the man! He's a ton of fun! There is nobody I'd rather be in quarantine with. We have such a good time and are doing literally everything we can to make this area pop in the quarantine! We've been calling all the members and have been hitting the Facebook find grind like crazy. 

We've actually been able to get pretty busy and are now teaching about 6 lessons a day so that's been fun! Lots of member lessons but it's been good! The video call lessons are probably the best way to do member work. It's exactly what we're looking for in this mission, no fat dinner appointments with the members that are a waste, but fitting like 4 member lessons in the time we used to do just one.

Elder Young and I just laugh all day every day. Until 10:30 pm we're just dying haha. It's been a blast with him.

Our zone is super awesome! It's been awesome to be a zone leader here in the Rockford zone! We've been putting some heavy focus on accountability and staying structured during the quarantine, we've already seen a super good increase in our numbers here! Missionaries are starting to figure out how to rock this quarantine life and it is getting gnarly!

Hope everyone has an incredible week!
